Manchester United are reportedly considering a move for former Liverpool goalkeeper Simon Mignolet in the January transfer window.
According to Belgian outlet Het Laaset Nieuws, United manager Erik ten Hag is 'seriously' contemplating a move for the 34-year-old, who is currently playing for Club Brugge in his homeland. Mignolet spent six seasons with Premier League rivals Liverpool and was part of their squad that won the Champions League in 2019.
The Belgium international, who made over 200 appearances for the Merseyside outfit, has been impressive since joining Club Brugge from Liverpool. He has kept 10 clean sheets in 17 matches for Carl Hoefkens' side this season.

David de Gea is out of contract at Old Trafford at the end of the season and while United are expected to extend his deal, it remains to be seen if Ten Hag will look to recruit a new shot-stopper next year.
Elsewhere, Fichajes are reporting that the Reds will make another approach for Barcelona midfielder Frenkie de Jong in next summer's transfer window after failing to secure his services this year.
United prioritised a move for the 25-year-old Dutchman, but the former Ajax man was desperate to remain in Spain - despite the two clubs agreeing a fee for the player.
The report states that the Reds are ready to spend €80million on De Jong in the summer to further bolster their midfield after the arrival of Casemiro from Real Madrid this summer.
De Jong has struggled for game time so far this term and has made just five starts for Xavi's side. The Netherlands international has dropped down the pecking order at Camp Nou in recent months.
